Such an enjoyable film I can't stand to give it less than 5 stars! It is not perfect, and there are plenty of valid complaints to be made, but it feels like it accomplished exactly what it set out to. It's a wonderful balance of dark comedy, exploration in sci fi, and thoughtfulness. It doesn't take a single moment too seriously, yet I still left the theater contemplating its themes. Robert Pattinson is an absolute treat to watch in this role and the rest of the cast completely nailed the energy of this movie. It'd be hard no to enjoy the time you spend watching this one, so if you're debating, watch it!!

Gives incorrect answers which, as a trivia game, defeats the whole purpose.

Bad acting, bad writing, bad idea. It's literally a conservative circle j**k. If you think the idea is funny watch one of the 20 year old movies that already did it better. This is a waste of your time.

Campy, gory, and sweet. A very old story told through a very new lens, packed with action and support groups. Robert Kirkman has a way of reshaping the stories you know into something new and exciting. Nic Cage is over the top in all the best ways, while Hoult and Awkwafina do a fantastic job driving the heart of the film. Im probably alone in this, but my only complaint was the pacing. Being only 90 minutes long, a lot gets packed in and sometimes feels rushed. I think even an extra 10 minutes to flesh a few scenes out and this would've gotten a fifth star from me. It is exactly what it aims to be: a dark, action-packed, comedy about the world's most famous vampire and his often overlooked "familiar" who's ready for a change. I'd recommend this film if you're looking for a quick and easy viewing experience. It was fun to watch and flies by!

This show is (...very loosely) based on real people. The Gentleman Pirate, Stede Bonnet, known associate of the infamous Blackbeard, Ed Teach. What exactly is a "gentleman pirate" you ask? Well, exactly what it sounds like. A captain that says please and thank you, much to his rag tag crew's dismay. Perhaps his encounters with Blackbeard will change him into a ruthless scoundrel of the sea....or maybe...well you'll just have to watch to find out!! It's well worth it if you like: -laughing -adventures -lgbtq representation (the nice kind) -revenge and betrayal -action and sword fighting (!!!) -romance? you'll be up to your eyes in it! -a stellar, diverse cast with some amazing guest stars -sea witches -mer....people -heartbreak -found family -kick a** ladies -golden retriever/black cat dynamic -and above all heart 🖤 1000/10 will be watching many times over!

Nolan has outdone himself. His anachronistic storytelling, the sound design, the cinematography, all superb! The performances were outstanding, from leads like RDJ and Murphy to bit parts like Malek and even Peck. He builds suspense and emotion in tandem, with satisfying release. The ending was bittersweet and evocative. The 3 hours are well worth it and I never once found myself wondering "how much is left" as I have in other films of similar length. He is a master of his craft and this may be his magnum opus.
